Bowdoin Geneology

Bowdoin

Sue, do any of your bowdoins come from Maine? I have a John Bowdoin from York, ME. His son was Leander N. Bowdoin, who moved to Boston sometime prior to 1900 and with the birth ofhis son Arthur in 1904 changed the spelling of Bowdoin to Bowden. Does any of this soundfamiliar to you? John's wife's name is unknown. Suspect she died either in child-birth or soon after.
